    Is your bike equipped with the stock ignition system? Both plugs should fire at the same time. How many small wire terminals do you have on the coil that you took off? Two or three? If you have only two, it's a dual fire ignition system. If the original coil had three connections, it was a single fire ignition. If the ignition system has been changed to a single fire and you've got a dual fire coil on it, it won't work. Look in the nose cone or under the seat for an aftermarket ignition box.

SOURCE: what size spark plug for a 2000 harley davidson road king carbed,

Your Twin Cam plug should be a 6R 12 Harley Plug. Often times the back fire is just the nature of the beast depending on what type of pipes you are running. Harleys do run lean, its an EPA thing thtas why they choke them down from the factory. Since you have a carb you could have an intake leak around the Intake. Also Under the carb is an adjustment screw. Harley plugs it up so people don't play with it. You have to just drill out the plug this will set your air fuel. Whenever I take a carb off I drill out that plug. Heat your bike up operating temp and ear tune that screw. Only other way is with air fuel analizer or a dyno. good luck.also that backfire is caused by fuel hitting your exhaust when you let off just to let you know.

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

The voltage on the green wire must be pulsating when cranking/starting the bike, not steady. Confirm by similarly testing the voltage on the black wire on the left ignition coil. If the green still reads a constant voltage, then the CDI is faulty; to be more specific, most likely that the switching tansistor inside the CDI that drives the right ignition coil has shorted.

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.

2000 harley road king will not start,new battery,drained and refill fuel tank,engine light comes on for 4 seconds and hear fuel pump run, cranks over good but no start,has not run for 2 years.

Hi, i would work from here. Check the spark plugs, the plug wires, and the coil. Those hardly go bad, so it's possible that something is not allowing the coil to fire.
